Donald Trump has 40 days to convince his former rival, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, that he is the right person to lead the country. If not, the governor has said he would have no problem walking into the RNC convention and refusing to endorse Trump. As the convention host, can the governor, knowing how essential Ohio is in the general election, really afford to do that?
“Absolutely,” Kasich said in an exclusive interview with Fox News’ Bill Hemmer that aired Thursday.
“I call them as I see them.”
At least he’s going to the convention. Several high-profile Republicans, including former presidents AND presidential candidatesannounced that they were withdrawing from the competition altogether because this year’s alleged selection was not to their liking.
Kasich also laughed at the thought of being Donald Trump’s vice presidential running mate in 2016.
“There is never a chance of that happening,” he said.
“We’re like two companies,” Kasich explained. “We have a different vision, a different value system, and a different goal, so it’s hard to combine them.”
Kasich added that Trump is not favorable to him because he is insulting and divisive.
“We don’t need this in this country.”
Kasich may never accept the vice presidency, but he admitted there is a “chance” Trump could get his vote.
